OHEKA CASTLE

Overview

OHEKA CASTLE regally stands on a manicured private estate in the heart of Long Island in New York. Influenced by the grandeur of years past, this family-owned castle graciously welcomes guests into a luxurious hotel with historic charm. Built by financier and philanthropist Otto Hermann Kahn in 1919, The New York Times declared it “the finest country estate in America,” and the chateau remains the second-largest private residence ever built in America. In 1984, the estate, then in a dilapidated state, was purchased by the current owner and underwent a painstaking restoration to bring the historic OHEKA CASTLE back to its original opulence.

A royal experience, guests will be welcomed to this premier Gold Coast retreat with charming European luxury and hospitality. Guests will relax in one of 32 guestrooms, many with stunning views of the meticulously maintained grounds. Visitors will enjoy classic elegance and modern touches of a 21st-century hotel. OHEKA is also the ideal place to host a breathtaking destination wedding or event. This legendary estate is the perfect escape to a bygone era within an hour’s drive from New York City.

OHEKA CASTLE has been the backdrop to many television and film productions, including the classic film, Citizen Kane (1941), and the present day television series, Royal Pains.
